We had a party for Penny's first birthday on Saturday. I actually did some crafts, mainly with a $6 pack of scrapbook paper.
My friend Marsha made the smash cake and cupcakes. She is super talented.
She napped afterwards at home and then opened her presents.

At one year, she is so fun to be around. She loves playing in blankets - hiding in them, holding them up like a beard, just laying on them. She is a big snuggler. She knows when she is about to get in trouble and she will start running as fast as she can before we can grab her. She loves holding books, carrying them around, and flipping the pages herself. Her head is still super tiny which makes her look younger than she is. She is super ticklish. She sleeps 11-13 hours a night. She eats pretty much anything. She giggles all the time and has learned to blow kisses. She is a JOY.
